When the guard doesn't call him to announce a visitor, he goes to see what's happening. The person waiting is Tracey, with two more coffees; since the guard is absent, Sam lets her in. Sitting in front of the box, he tells her that his job is to watch the box to see if anything appears inside it, and that, although he has not seen anything yet, the guy who was there before him did see something at one point that he preferred not to talk about. After sitting down and tasting the coffee, the two of them start to make out and eventually have sex. Meanwhile, the box darkens completely and a figure appears inside, the Experiment Model (Erica Eynon). After Sam and Tracey notice this, the figure breaks out of the box and slaughters them. In an apartment complex in Buckhorn, South Dakota, Marjorie Green (Melissa Bailey) walks her dog Armstrong down the hall. When the dog starts to bark in front of the door of Ruth Davenport (Mary Stofle), Marjorie notices a foul smell, and calls the police. Officers Douglas (James Giordano) and Olson ( Christopher Murray) are sent to investigate. They ask whether anyone has the key to Ruth's apartment, which Marjorie does not know, and whether there is a manager, to which Marjorie answers that there is one named Barney, but that he is unavailable. After the two call a locksmith, Marjorie suggests asking Barney's brother, Chip; when they ask her where to find him, she sends them to Hank Fillmore (

), a friend of Barney. The officers find Hank outside the complex. He reacts shiftily, asking if they were sent by Harvey and then, upon questioning, tells them that Chip does not possess a phone. Marjorie appears on the staircase, announcing that she has a key. Upon entering the apartment, the officers walk into the bedroom to see a severely damaged head lying in bed, her body under the covers. Meanwhile, Hank calls Harvey believing that he sent the police; the two proceed to discuss a deal they made, with Hank insisting that the money from it is solely his and Chip's since Harvey opted out of it.

) and Police Officer Mike Boyd (Dep Kirkland) observe Macklay as he interrogates Hastings. Hastings says he barely knew Davenport, the school librarian, and that the last time he saw her was a couple of months earlier, but his story contains a 40- to 50-minute gap on the day of Ruth's murder, on which, he adds with hesitation, he took his assistant Betty home after a meeting. As Hastings speaks, Macklay writes down notes on his statement, producing a scratching sound that seems to agitate and distract Hastings. After Hastings nervously asks for his lawyer, Macklay informs him that Davenport was murdered and that his fingerprints were found all over the apartment. Hastings is then escorted to a cell, where he asks to speak to his wife. Macklay and Harrison go to the Hastings home with a police team and a search warrant for the house. Upon inspecting the car, the two find an unidentifiable lump of human flesh in the trunk under a portable fridge. Now alone, the Fireman watches the phonograph as the scratching noise continues.

Writing for IndieWire, Liz Shannon Miller gave the episode a B+, expressing disappointment at the "pretty staggering" violence against women in both this episode and Part 2, but praising the show as "fascinating in our current era of revivals, because it eschews all the conventions used by other series".
